[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Should have said "even with the changing demographics of the city, I doubt these schools will be much different because of the amount of students they will continue to draw from the projects and the fact a that all the pie in the sky millinneals who now have babies and toddlers will have fled the area and DCPS once Emma and Liam hit 1st grade." Better for you?[/quote] DCPS split the Amidon-Bowen boundary so 2 of the 3 public housing complexes will now start going one grade at a time to Van Ness. Both schools will have a mixture of income levels. And from volunteering at a different school, you'd be surprised at how uncorrelated household income and school behavior/academic achievement can be. I realize that on a macro scale, there is a big relationship between these two factors. But in a classroom of 18 kids, it's hard to predict who the few most compliant/disruptive/noisy/gifted kids will be.[/quote]
